Most positions have managers that provide a very flexible workplace. Most instructors work from home. Support staff is in the office and all but temporary positions are well supprted. Up until recently only one male on executive staff.

There are plenty of women that work here and they are given great opportunities to gain valuable work experience. However, upper management is entirely male-dominated, which simply makes it a bit more difficult for them to be fully aware of women's needs. But they are growing more and more conscious of it.

Be very careful working here, I was harassed by various men who had higher positions. When I reported that a male coworker asked me out three times in a week, the male management specifically told me not to tell the female HR director. Managers and male coworkers called me "sensitive" and called me "girl" instead of using my first name. I also got insulting questions like "what day of the week do women usually get their hair cut?" It is a very male-oriented environment and it's very difficult to be viewed as more than simply a person with a specific gender. I was always viewed as just a woman. As I was leaving the company, my then-manager recognized that I was unhappy with my lack of professional growth at the company and suggested that he set me up with one of his male friends to get me to be happy.

I worked at HP for 4 years. I made some lifelong friends, learned a great deal about how to be successful a massive company, and met many talented and brilliant people. Unfortunately, being part of a 300K+ employee firm has its downsides, including the bureaucracy and its tolerance of mediocrity. This once proud tech giant lost its way by shifting its focus away from innovation, and is now paying the price of trying to remain relevant. With that said, you will have a few weeks to get your sea legs and learn the hierarchy and business units. If possible, on your first day be sure to ask for an onboarding partner who can help you navigate how to get set up, attend the right meetings, and introduce you to your future teammates, peers, and cross-functional partners -- newcomers are often left to their own imagination and devices to learn and understand the intranet (home of all HR information, maps, conference call instructions, etc.). Focus on building the right relationships with generosity and genuine collaboration, and you'll do well at HP.
